THE communities’ safety in light of the Covid-19 outbreak is a shared priority for both its local government unit and Hedcor.
Together with Aboitiz Foundation, Hedcor turned over sacks of rice and ready-to-eat goods to its partner municipalities and barangays.
Hedcor ensured to help heighten the communities’ preventive measures against infection. As such, hand soaps and disinfectants were turned over to the communities for cleaning and disinfection use.
Other items, such as folding beds as well as basic supplies like pails, basins, and other essentials were also handed over to the community.
Medical supplies, such as face masks, alcohol, and thermometers, are also expected to be provided by the hydropower firm as soon as the items are available.
In response to this, Brgy. Captain Ramir Linohon from Brgy. Maluko—one of the recipient barangays—expressed his gratitude to the organization.
“Sa ngalan sa Maluko barangay council ug sa pamilya sa mga frontliners, mupaabot gayud mi ug kinasing-kasing nga pasasalamat sa Hedcor ug sa tibuok Aboitiz group sa dako kaayong tabang,” Linohon said.
Aside from Barangay Maluko, other recipients include barangays Santiago, Guilang-Guilang, Dalirig, Guihean, Lingion, municipalities of Impasugong and Manolo Fortich, and Province of Bukidnon.
“The Aboitiz Group is one with the government and our brave medical and security frontliners who are working hard to defeat Covid-19. We are committed to supporting the Covid-19 frontliners for the long term,” said Sabin Aboitiz Group president and CEO in line with their efforts in assisting their partner communities.
Through these efforts, Hedcor is committed to helping sustain the needs of its host communities in this trying time. This is an embodiment of Hedcor Bukidnon’s bigger promise of Advancing Business and Communities. (PR)
